@MerlinMama - I don't see that using the default settings.
But I do see it using custom chapter_start settings, so I assume that you are using those.
The INI config parser strips off trailing whitespace automatically whether we want it to or not. I've worked around it for a few other parameters by explicitly replacing
\s with space once it's in my code. However, I can't do that for all parameters because it can be a legitimate part of a path or a regex.
I'll think about it a bit, but I don't expect to have any brainstorms. In the meantime, you could add something to the end of chapter_start to separate the title from the chapter text.
Code:
[epub]
chapter_start:<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">
<head>
<title>${chapter}</title>
<link href="stylesheet.css" type="text/css" charset="UTF-8" rel="stylesheet"/>
<meta name="chapterurl" content="${url}"></meta>
<meta name="chapterorigtitle" content="${origchapter}"></meta>
<meta name="chaptertoctitle" content="${tocchapter}"></meta>
<meta name="chaptertitle" content="${chapter}"></meta>
</head>
<body>
<h3>${chapter}</h3>
# (Leading whitespace is left alone, so chapter_end is easy.)
chapter_end:
</body>
</html>
